Whether you’re drawn to bold statements or subtle elegance, the way you style your jewellery can reveal your personality and elevate your everyday look. That’s why we’ve designed our Ear Stack Collection - to help you create a transformative, personalised style with every piece you wear.
Ear stacking is the perfect way to show off your individuality, and it’s all about mixing and matching pieces to create a layered effect that’s uniquely yours. It's understated yet transformative, versatile yet bold. If you're ready to elevate your style, we’ve put together this simple, step-by-step guide to help you master the art of the ear stack.
Why Ear Stacking?
Ear stacking is more than just a trend—it’s a way to express your personality, your moods, and your tastes. It's a look that can be customized to suit any occasion, from casual to formal. And, with the versatility of sterling silver, our NAJO creations are designed to adapt to your unique style, allowing you to switch things up as you please.
But how do you get started? That’s where our easy three-step guide comes in.
Step 1.
The first step in creating a stunning ear stack is selecting a bold statement piece for your first ear hole. This is your chance to make a statement and set the tone for the entire look. Whether you go for a striking hoop, a geometric design, or something more intricate, choose a piece that feels true to your personal style. This will be the foundation of your ear stack, so pick something that speaks to you.
Pro Tip: Think of your statement earring as the anchor to your look. It’s the one piece that will catch attention and define the overall vibe of your ear stack.
Step 2.
Once you’ve selected your statement piece, it’s time to add a layer of depth and balance to your stack. Layering smaller hoops or studs helps to create a more dynamic look, allowing each piece to shine without overwhelming the other. Consider choosing a hoop or stud that complements the design of your statement piece—perhaps something more delicate in shape or a contrasting texture.
Pro Tip: Don’t be afraid to mix sizes and shapes. The key to a great ear stack is variety, and combining different elements can create a more visually interesting effect.
Step 3.
The final step in completing your ear stack is to add an ear cuff that embraces your ear cartilage—no extra piercing needed. This piece adds an elegant touch and creates a harmonious flow to the overall stack. Ear cuffs are a great way to experiment with different shapes and textures without committing to additional piercings. Whether you choose a sleek, minimal design or a more elaborate piece, an ear cuff can transform your stack into something truly extraordinary.
Pro Tip: Don’t overlook the power of a well-placed ear cuff. Its delicate presence can elevate your entire look, giving it an unexpected, modern edge.
